Jaire Alexander

[BunchesofFunchess]

Kinda surprised he hasn't been discussed much for our first pick. Fills a glaring need and would immediately be CB1 for us imo. Also he crushed the underwear Olympics/has punt return skills as well. Thoughts?

No thanks. His little “hands on hips and prance around” celebration is the worst I’ve ever seen. 

[BunchesofFunchess]

So we don't want any players who don't know how to properly celebrate? Cam could probably help him out a little with that...Alexander is a beast though and might be the best corner in this draft. Wouldn't hate at all if we ended up with him or Jackson.

I love Alexander. But after the combine he has been mocked top 10-15. Way out of our reach

Got any real film...i've been told its stupid to look at youtube highlights...but I really like Alexander...everybody we need is bunched in similar draft positions...

They can't all be at 10-15...

One guy can be? Basically u got Fitzpatrick James and ward all gone top 12 as far as dbs... Alexander is probably the next best cornerback and gonna come off the board around 15?

he's 5' 11"...would Ron take him?  He likes long CBs

Fun fact about Alexander, he originally committed to the Charlotte 49ers in high school. He blew up and committed to South Carolina before ultimately going to Louisville.

That's actually a problem just looking at height but the guys don't have the quickness or cover skills to recover. 

If Alexander was 6 feet he'd easily be the best cb in the draft. He's not talked about much because he had a injury riddle year. But he can cover,  has a certain confidence about him, and speed to recover and stay stride for stride with his man

Yet they all are.  I think about 40 guys will be picked before #24.  All gone.  Happens every year.

That have not worked out too well for him.  I had the same question.  I see Isiah Oliver here for that reason.

[Shocker]

I think this guy is overated.  The kid from Iowa is a one year wonder of sorts but I'd much rather get him.

[Cpt slay a ho]

He’s smooth and fluid, would be a good pick up
